Isolated Genes And Proteins Encoding Resistance To Photosensitizers

View page
US Patent:
60639873, May 16, 2000
Filed:
Mar 16, 1998
Appl. No.:
9/039859
Inventors:
Margaret E. Daub - Raleigh NC
Marilyn Ehrenshaft - Cary NC
Anne E. Jenns - Raleigh NC
Assignee:
North Carolina State University - Raleigh NC
International Classification:
C12N 504
C12N 1529
C12N 1582
A01H 500
A01H 510
US Classification:
800279
Abstract:
The present invention is drawn to methods and compounds for providing resistance to photosensitizers in cells and organisms that are sensitive to photosensitizers. Specifically, an isolated nucleic acid molecule, which upon expression provides resistance to a photosensitizer, is described. Also described are methods of transforming cells and organisms with the isolated nucleic acid molecule, such that resistance to a photosensitizer is increased or provided to the cells and organisms so transformed.

US Patent:
60779950, Jun 20, 2000
Filed:
Mar 21, 1996
Appl. No.:
8/620077
Inventors:
Robert G. Upchurch - Cary NC
Terrence M. Callahan - Raleigh NC
Marilyn Ehrenshaft - Cary NC
Assignee:
The United States of America as represented by the Secretary of
Agriculture - Washington DC
North Carolina State University - Raleigh NC
International Classification:
C12N 1529
C12N 1582
A01H 500
A01H 400
US Classification:
800298
Abstract:
The present invention is directed to nucleic acid and amino acid sequences which are responsible for moving the fungal toxin cercosporin across the plasma membrane of living cells. The DNA can be introduced into a plant using conventional methods of transformation in order to confer cercosporin resistance to plants.
